Printemps et eté, 1923

1923 · 15 pictures

A 1923 Swiss fashion catalogue, Printemps et été, offering women's coats and suits for the spring and summer season. The pictures are monochrome fashion plates of numbered models, with stylised figures in long belted coats, cloche and wide-brimmed hats, and tailored suits with patch pockets, set against faint street and garden backdrops; a designer might take their long lines, wide lapels, and sash-belt details as period reference for 1920s tailoring.
